Jewellery Care: Keeping Your Precious Pieces Shining Bright

At Sophellie, we understand that the jewellery you purchase from us is not just an accessory; it's an investment in beauty and sentiment. Whether you've chosen a stunning sterling silver piece, elegant gold jewellery, or the delicate allure of rose gold adorned with precious gemstones, taking good care of your treasures is paramount. Proper jewellery care ensures that your items maintain their brilliance and sparkle for generations to come.

1. Cleaning and Polishing

Regular cleaning is essential to keep your jewellery looking its best. Dirt, oils, and skin residues can dull the shine of your precious pieces. We recommend using our impregnated cleaning cloths for gentle and effective cleaning. Simply rub the cloth over your jewellery to remove tarnish and restore its luster. For more stubborn stains or intricate designs, use a soft brush with mild soap and warm water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or toothpaste, as they can scratch the surface of gemstones and metals.

2. Storage Matters

Proper storage is crucial to prevent scratches and tangling. Each item from Sophellie comes beautifully boxed, making it easy for you to keep your jewellery safe when not in use. Store your pieces separately to prevent them from scratching against each other, and consider using soft pouches or jewellery boxes with compartments for added protection.

3. Avoid Exposure

Your jewellery can be sensitive to various elements that may affect its appearance. Avoid exposing your pieces to:

• Moisture: Remove your jewellery before swimming, showering, or bathing to prevent damage from water and chemicals in cosmetics.
• Chemicals: Keep your jewellery away from household cleaning products, perfumes, and hairsprays. These substances can tarnish or damage precious metals and gemstones.
• Extreme Temperatures: Store your jewellery in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes.

4. Regular Inspections

Periodically inspect your jewellery for loose stones, worn prongs, or signs of damage. If you notice any issues, bring your pieces to a professional jeweller for repair. Prompt attention can prevent more extensive damage and costly repairs in the future.

5. Personalization Care

If you've personalised your jewellery with engravings or special touches, take extra care to preserve these unique features. Use a soft cloth to clean personalised areas gently, avoiding any harsh abrasives that could affect the integrity of the engraving.

At Sophellie, we are committed to providing you with not only exquisite jewellery but also the knowledge and tools to care for your treasures. Our impregnated cleaning cloths are designed to make your jewellery care routine effortless, ensuring your pieces remain as breathtaking as the day you first received them.

By following these jewellery care tips, you can enjoy your collection for years to come and even pass down these timeless pieces as cherished heirlooms. Remember, the love and care you invest in your jewellery will be reflected in its enduring beauty.
